Not 31 or 27, 28! But my medical will not allow me to collect a new prescription until a WHOLE (yes, 31, 30, 28 or even 29 days) month has gone by.

Do you think that the medical aids and the pharmaceutical companies are saving like this?

Just wondering if anyone who has had gallstones or has had a loved one who has had gallstones can tell me the types of symptoms that usually come with them. Someone very close to me has just recently been diagnosed with gallstones and I am worried about her. Are the symptoms so bad as to cause inability to socialize or to live your daily life? She has been prescribed vicodin, but not sure how much that will help. Can anyone share their experiences on how much gallstones have affected them or their loved ones? Thank you.
